Frequent Recombination in a Saltern Population of Halorubrum
Science, 2004Sex and recombination are driving forces in the evolution of eukaryotes. Homologous recombination is known to be the dominant process in the divergence of many bacterial species. For Archaea, the only direct evidence bearing on the importance or natural occurrence of homologous recombination is anecdotal reports of mosaicism from comparative genomic ...

Microbial Diversity in Athalassohaline Argentinean Salterns
2020Hypersaline environments are considered to be hostile environments due to their extreme conditions, such as high salinity and temperature. However, unicellular organisms from the three domains of life—Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya—are present in high numbers in these habitats where salt precipitation occurs due to saturation.

The saltern mounds of north-east Lincolnshire
Proceedings of the Yorkshire Geological Society, 1986SUMMARY Mapping of the waste mounds left by the old coastal salt industry in north-east Lincolnshire has shown that they cover about 8.4 km 2 between Humberston and Saltfleet. They are located close to the line of the medieval sea-wall and associated storm beaches of sand and shingle, but mostly appear to ...

On the red coloration of saltern crystallizer ponds
International Journal of Salt Lake Research, 1992To assess, respectively, the contribution of red bacteria of theHalobacterium-Haloferax-Haloarcula group and of the β-carotene-rich green algaDunaliella salina to the red colour of saltern crystallizer ponds, we studied the optical properties of the brines of NaCl-saturated saltern ponds in Eilat, Israel, and quantified the pigments present in their ...

Distribution and types of bacteria isolated from an inland saltern
Annales de l'Institut Pasteur / Microbiologie, 1987The physico-chemical characteristics and bacterial populations of an inland saltern were studied. The well water leading into the ponds of the saltern differed from sea water in its total salinity (18% (w/v)) and had lower Mg2+ and SO4(2-) contents and much higher contents of Cl-, Ca2+- and K+.

The Geology of the Saltern Cove Area, Torbay
Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society of London, 1927The small complex of Lower, Middle, and Upper Devonian rocks which occupies a mile by half a mile, immediately south of Paignton, lies between Goodrington and Broadsands. The sequence and structure are well seen in the cliffs and the railway-cutting, but farther inland there is a lack of good exposures.

Haloarchaeal communities in the crystallizers of two adriatic solar salterns
Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 2007Solar salterns operate only for short dry periods of the year in the north shore of the Adriatic Sea because of its relatively humid and cold Mediterranean climate. In a previous paper, we showed that the NaCl precipitation ponds (crystallizers) of Northern Adriatic Sečovlje salterns have different haloarchaeal populations from those typically found in

Diversity partitioning of a phytoplankton community in semiarid salterns
Marine and Freshwater Research, 2015Salterns consist of a series of interconnected evaporators that form sectors in the salterns. Their operation generates an increasing saline gradient, which influences species diversity. The present study was conducted in three salterns, with the goal of evaluating the diversity partitioning of phytoplankton along the saline gradient.

Salmonella mutagenicity analysis of water samples from Çamaltı saltern
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2007Mutagenicity analysis of water samples from Camalti Saltern, Turkey were investigated by applying Salmonella mutagenicity test. Plate incorporation assay was applied in the absence of metabolic activation. XAD 4 and XAD 16 columns were used for the fractionation of the water samples. The results obtained were negative in both TA 98 and TA 100. Although
